Black Caviar Gold

The recent form string of 4-2-9-1-1-4 tells an interesting story. Read it right to left — that is oldest to newest — and you can see two back-to-back wins followed by a second place, which is a horse hitting its stride. The 9th place after that is a stumble worth keeping in perspective, and the fourth most recently suggests the horse is still finding its feet again after that dip. Four places from seven races overall means it has been in the mix far more often than not, which points to a horse that competes hard even when the win does not come.

The yard behind this horse is worth noting. P Twomey, based in Cashel, County Tipperary, has sent out 42 winners already this season — that is a training operation running at serious pace. A stable that productive does not waste time on horses it does not believe in, and the fact that Black Caviar Gold has been pointed at a track like The Curragh suggests Twomey sees something worth nurturing here. Having raced just one day ago, this is a horse very much in active campaign mode, and with the winning form from September 2025 still only eight months in the rear-view mirror, the next chapter is very much still being written.
